LoopGuard stops you spending it.

Budget fuses and a runaway-loop killer for Claude Code, Codex CLI and Cursor. One install, no proxy, works on subscriptions — and it pings your phone when something trips.

Install free Start 14-day Pro trial

npx loopguard init      # hooks into Claude Code, Codex and Cursor (backs up configs)
loopguard config set sessionCapUsd 20
loopguard report --by agent

# Pro: alerts + remote pause → https://tryloopguard.com/login
loopguard login --key lg_…   # then: loopguard sync

Hard caps

Per-session and daily dollar caps across every agent. When a cap trips, the tool call is denied and the session halts.

Loop killer

Catches the same tool call repeating and cost spirals ($ per minute), before you notice them in the logs.

Local first

Reads the logs your agents already write. No API keys, no proxy. Only aggregate numbers ever leave your machine — and only if you turn on sync.

Away-from-keyboard alerts

Email, Slack or Discord the moment something trips, and pause or resume enforcement from your phone.

Pricing

Free

Open-source CLI (MIT). Caps, loop detection, local reports.

Pro

$9/mo

or $79/year. Dashboard, alerts, remote pause, history across machines.

Team

$19/dev/mo

Min 3 seats. Everything in Pro for your whole team.
